Clients learn far more than just healthy eating and exercise tips at Burn Boot Camp, as the concept strays from the competition by operating on a five-pillar philosophy to help clients achieve success: mindset, nutrition, burst training, strength training, and positive environment.

“Casey and Todd are joining the strong network of Burn Boot Camp franchise operators at an exciting growth point for the brand,” said Devan Kline, CEO, and co-founder of Burn Boot Camp. “The Fort Collins location is well on its way of transforming the lives of residents and creating a meaningful community environment under their guidance.”

The fitness concept also provides a convenient environment for women, ensuring a worry-free workout; all sessions before 5 p.m. are only available to women, and childcare is available for mothers free of charge while they’re on-campus.

With the computer programming and STEM fields expanding at rapid rates and parents and kids alike realizing its importance, concepts like Code Ninjas, a startup kids coding franchise, are seeing the impact first hand. The booming franchise, with 25 locations currently open and more than 225 in development, has signed a total of 145 franchise agreements already in 2018, including an agreement for 33 units.

The recent 33-unit agreement is being developed by entrepreneur Jazmin West and her husband, based out of San Diego. As a mother of three with a master’s degree in technology and education, Jazmin understands the importance of preparing kids for the technology-driven world that lies before them. The Wests’ 33 locations will be opening in regions across the country including Southern California (San Diego, Los Angeles, and Orange County), Salt Lake City, Ohio, Atlanta, Huntsville, and Indianapolis. Locations in San Diego, Salt Lake City and Atlanta will open in 2018.

“Partners like the Wests validate for us that there’s a massive, unmet demand across the country, and how vital it is for us to make learning to code accessible to more and more children,” said David Graham, CEO and founder of Code Ninjas. “Statistically, only about 18 percent of franchise concepts ever reach the 100 unit mark. Part of the reason Code Ninjas has been able to surpass this point so early on is our ability to combine learning with fun. This allows us to appeal to the needs of both parents and children, essentially doubling our market reach.”

In addition to the Wests’ development, Code Ninjas has recently signed agreements to bring new centers to markets including Virginia Beach, Orlando, Washington D.C., Chicago, and Seattle. These new franchise partners will be joining the successful group of current Code Ninjas owners, who operate centers in Charlotte, Houston, Austin, Kansas City, Columbus, Minneapolis, Omaha, San Diego, and other areas.

Code Ninjas seeks qualified franchise partners looking for a personally and financially rewarding business opportunity that positively impacts America’s youth. Interested candidates do not require previous coding experience. The Code Ninjas leadership team brings decades of experience in the software development and franchising fields, and offers significant support for marketing/sales, operations, and extensive training.

As a low-cost investment opportunity in the thriving children’s enrichment sector, Code Ninjas franchisees can expect an investment ranging from $110,140 to $353,270. In addition to the Wests’ recent signing, the brand looks to further expand its footprint in existing markets, as well as break into new territories. Specifically, the brand is targeting Denver, Cincinnati, Las Vegas, Los Angeles, San Francisco, and New York, among other areas.

Mathnasium Learning Centers, the math-only education experts for grades 2–12, proudly announces it has renewed its partnership with National PTA, continuing its mission to change lives through math. This is Mathnasium’s third year working with National PTA as a Founding Sponsor of National PTA’s STEM + Families initiative.

As part of this renewed partnership, Mathnasium and National PTA will continue to support Math Nights in communities nationwide in the 2018–2019 school year.

“The response to Math Night events thus far has been overwhelmingly positive,” said Markovitz. “We’re honored to continue our partnership with the dedicated parent leaders of PTA, to reach out to even more students and families, promote the awareness of STEM education and careers, and pursue our mission to help children understand and master math.”

“We are thrilled to continue our collaboration with Mathnasium,” said Jim Accomando, president of National PTA. “Mathnasium’s support of our efforts to increase access to STEM experiences for all students and engage families in STEM education is essential to student success in STEM and to inspire the next generation of STEM professionals.”

“We’re delighted to launch this scholarship program in support of the 8,000-strong Krystal family,” Klump said. “Our people are our brand. Their passion for our customers and their devotion to Krystal’s iconic legacy set us apart in the industry. We want to reward their dedication and loyalty with our own.”

The Square Up Scholarship program is designed to support, promote and encourage the educational pursuits and goals of individual Krystal employees, including both full and part time workers at company-owned and franchise restaurants. Recipients will be selected through an application process that evaluates academic achievement, leadership, community involvement, brand tenure, unusual family and personal circumstances, and financial need. Eligible applicants must be in good standing and have a six-month employment tenure with the company.

The $2,500 individual awards may be used toward four-year or two-year degrees, trade degrees or technical certifications from accredited learning institutions. Krystal plans to award up to 20 scholarships in its initial rollout and even more scholarships going forward to recipients who enroll in at least one class per semester. The scholarship fund will grow over time with contributions from employees, franchisees, partners and community support.

“We have employees who have been with the company for decades, and their leadership and institutional knowledge are invaluable,” said Paul Macaluso, Krystal CEO. “But employee retention is an industry-wide challenge. These scholarships are an investment in our people. We want to do everything we can to attract good workers in our restaurants and support their career aspirations so they can support themselves and their families.”

The Square Up Scholarship application window will open in August. Partnering with Scholarship America, Krystal will announce Square Up Scholarship recipients in November for the 2019 spring term.

CLEVELAND, OH –  PRNewswire

Today, scoliosis often takes a backseat to other childhood health concerns. During National Scoliosis Awareness Month in June, the goal is to bring attention to this spinal condition, which can be effectively managed if detected early. HealthSource, America’s largest group of clinics specializing in chiropractic and holistic healthcare, is leading a campaign to educate parents on ways to detect and treat scoliosis. The campaign includes presentations at community centers, summer schools and local events. Participating clinics are also offering free scoliosis exams.

More than 3 million new cases of scoliosis are reported in the United States every year, with the majority being idiopathic scoliosis, the most common form impacting children. While there is no cure for scoliosis, early detection can prevent deformity resulting in back pain, unsightly posture and the body’s range of motion. Pressure on the spine from playing contact team sports, carrying heavy backpacks and frequently bending the head while using smart phones can exacerbate problems for those with scoliosis, but are not causes for the condition. The bottom line is parents need to be aware of common signs of scoliosis, and if they have any doubts, schedule a scoliosis exam for their child.

In 2004, the US Preventative Service Task Force called for an end to scoliosis screening at public schools. While a number of states still recommend school-based scoliosis screening, with budget constraints, many schools have dropped the exams. Those with have a family history for scoliosis are most at risk.

Visual Signs of Scoliosis:

• Tilted eye line
• One shoulder hangs higher than the other
• One shoulder blade sticks out more than the other
• One hip appears higher or more pronounced than the other
• One side of the rib cage appears higher than the other
• Mid-ear not aligned with tip of shoulder when viewed from the side
• Center of eyes not aligned horizontally with center of hips
• Body tilts to one side
• One leg appears shorter than the other
• Ribs stick out when child does a full forward bend

If your child is diagnosed with scoliosis, there is no need to panic. “Scoliosis is a very manageable condition when diagnosed early,” says Dr. Chris Tomshack, CEO and founder of HealthSource. “It’s best to identify before the child has a growth spurt. In most cases, treatment involves scoliosis massages, stretches and exercise along with scoliosis specific adjustments. Only 30% of those diagnosed with scoliosis need bracing, and even less – under 10% – require surgery.”

Domino’s (NYSE: DPZ), the largest pizza company in the world based on global retail sales, is supporting the American Red Cross and its latest Missing Types campaign to recruit blood donors.

As part of the campaign, the letters A, B, and O – letters used to identify the different blood types – are disappearing from popular brands’ logos to raise awareness on how important these three letters are. Through June 24, Domino’s will feature an altered logo with “missing o’s” on social media platforms while sharing a link where Domino’s fans can make an appointment to donate blood.

“Everyday thousands of patients across the United States rely on generous blood donors for critical blood transfusions,” said Gail McGovern, president and CEO of the Red Cross. “However, we have seen a troubling decline in the number of new blood donors. We urge the public to roll up a sleeve and fill the missing types before these lifesaving letters go missing from hospital shelves.”

Join the international #MissingType movement with Domino’s – make an appointment to give blood by visiting redcrossblood.org, using the Red Cross Blood Donor App or calling 1-800-REDCROSS (1-800-733-2767). All blood types are needed.

“Domino’s is proud to partner with the American Red Cross and its efforts to raise awareness about the critical blood shortage the U.S. is facing,” said Jenny Fouracre, Domino’s spokesperson. “We hope that delivering the facts to fans of Domino’s will bring new donors to the Red Cross.”

Facts about blood donation:

• Every two seconds, someone needs blood.
• Only about three percent of the U.S. population donates blood – and that number is shrinking by 80,000 people each year.
• One blood donation can potentially save up to three lives.
• Blood donors can give every 56 days.
• The Red Cross provides about 40 percent of our nation’s blood and blood components, all from generous volunteer donors.
• The Red Cross must collect more than 13,000 blood donations every day for patients at approximately 2,600 hospitals across the country.

LOS ANGELES – After years of freshening the faces of LA’s top celebrities and style-conscious residents at its flagship clinic, Beverly Hills Rejuvenation Center (BHRC) is on a mission to turn back the clock and provide unparalleled health and anti-aging services all across America.

Already established as one of America’s most widely respected leaders in age management and wellness, the Los Angeles-based franchise is looking to bring its proprietary hormone therapy program, customized age management regimes and cutting edge technologies to even more markets across the country.

Today there are 11 locations servicing clients in four states (California, Arizona, Nevada and Texas), with nearly a dozen more in various stages of development. Company plans call for having as many as 50 total locations open in the next five years.

“While it’s impossible to stop time, our professionals help clients ‘pause’ the effects of aging with the latest and most advanced health and anti-aging procedures and programs. It’s all about rebalancing and rejuvenating the total person so they can feel in control of their bodies again and achieve a more enjoyable and fulfilling life,” said Devin Haman, who co-founded Beverly Hills Rejuvenation Center in 2005 with long-time friend Dan Holtz. “We look forward to bringing our winning formula to even more markets across the country.”

Both long time fitness enthusiasts, Haman and Holtz began to notice the effects of aging in terms of increased body fat, a reduced immune system response, and a decline in hormone levels. As time progressed, other symptoms such as reduced energy, minor aches and pains, extended recovery times and loss of sleep were identified. Together they set a goal to “pause” the effects of aging then combined the technology and experts needed to succeed.

Today, Beverly Hills Rejuvenation Center has become widely recognized as the go-to medical spa for celebrities such as international model and star of Bravo’s “Real Housewives of Miami,” Joanna Krupa; television and film actor, Dean Caine; former Miss USA, Shanna Moakler; and legendary actress, Morgan Fairchild.

Caine has described BHRC as his “fountain of youth,” while Krupa vows BHRC is “The only place I go to look and feel great.”

Known for its advanced techniques and pioneering treatments, BHRC offers affordable, transformational and non-invasive services such as laser treatments, facial treatments, hormone replacement, weight loss and injectables. Other innovative treatments include coolsculpting, body contouring, hair restoration and vaginal rejuvenation.

According to Holtz, there are two primary motivations for clients to seek BHRC’s services: 1) Early interruption of the aging process and, 2) The desire to slow a process that has already begun.

“At BHRC, we pride ourselves on improving the health and appearance of our clients, while providing them a more enjoyable and fulfilling life. When clients feel healthy, they are more active, engaging and make the most of every day. When clients look better, they are more confident and accomplish more in both their professional and personal lives,” added Holtz. “We’ve seen first-hand the profound difference treatments have made in our patients lives, and hope to improve the lives of countless others as we expand.”

Beverly Hills Rejuvenation Centers are beautifully designed and spacious, and occupy approximately 2,000 square feet of Class A retail space in high traffic, high visibility locations. Each center operates under the direct supervision of a physician. In some situations the franchisee is also the Licensed, Supervising Physician, however that is not a requirement of franchise ownership.

Including a franchise fee of $50,000, the estimated initial investment to open a BHRC franchise ranges from $540,000 to $881,000.
